aquafaba recipe picks
You may have heard of aquafaba ('water-bean') by now. Who would have
thought that the next big thing to sweep across the vegan nation would have
been something as simple - and as icky - as the brine from legumes? It might
have something to do with the fact that not only is this liquid shaping out to
bethe perfect egg replacer, it’s also one of the cheapest and most accessible
replacers around - all you need is a can, or packet, of legumes, chickpeas being
thebean du jour.
Using juice straight from the can is the easiest method, though slowly cooking
dried beans in water for a few hours until the water turns to aquafaba will give
you similar results. Even water from packaged tofu and peas is aquafaba!
Remember, if your bean-juice is too watery, reduce it until it turns the same
consistency as egg whites. If using aquafaba to make fluffy things
likeYorkshire puddings and light cakes, remember to whisk it first until it turns
white and foamy, then fold it into the batter using a metal spoon to keep those
bubbles from popping. Use three tablespoons of aquafaba per egg - but don't
ive by that rule.
Learn more about this magic formula and its origins,document your
experiments and most importantly – get creative! Here are 13 of our topaquafaba recipes to get you started.

We can't forget our gluten-intolerant friends - and what better way to use up
those cans upon cans of chickpeas lying around after your experiments? These
fragrant chickpea blondies have an added moistness to them if you add in
roughly two-three tbsp of aquafaba, whisked. Get the full recipehere.
13) Mayo
It's not all about the sugar. Aquafaba also gives mayo that extra oomph. Get the
recipehere.
Additional aquafaba take-aways
Budding vegan chefs have generally found that using the juice from low-sodium
white beans tastes the best, with chickpeas (garbanzo beans) being the
preferred legume of choice.
You can use the juice in which you boil you beans, or take it straight from the
can.

This is something that has been missing in a vegan version - untill aquafaba
came along! It's called different names in different parts of the world. Aquafaba
does an amazing job of replacing raw egg whites. Enjoy the marzipan bottoms,
with marshmallow fluff covered in crisp dark chocolate :)

Chickpeas!Just buy a can of chickpeas and use the water from it. Lidl's brand works best I
hear. Other bean juices can be used to, generally white beans are better like
chickpeas and butterbeans.

OMG it really works! I bought a can of chickpeas from LIDL today for 35p and
used some of the water to make mayonnaise. I didn't quite follow the recipehere, just used what I had in the house. Here's my version: 20ml white wine
vinegar 1/2 tsp English mustard paste Pinch sea salt 60ml aquafaba 150ml
sunflower oil Combine the first 4 ingredients in a bowl (I actually used a wide-
brimmed half litre measuring jug) and blend briefly with a hand-held blender.
Then carry on blending as you drizzle the oil in. Mine didn't start to thicken until
I'd added about 130ml of oil and I stopped when it was still liquid but nice and
thick (150ml). After an hour or so in the fridge it's as good as any bought mayo
I've ever had. Will try with garlic and olive oil for alioli. Just amazing!• reply

"uafaba! $onderful!
I was very delighted and excited to discover your recipes. I wonder who thought
this up? The familiar garbanzo bean has glamorous, more decadent side.

Oh dear, August promises to be a very windy month with all this aquafaba ice
cream and desserts! This seems to be the one (big) drawback with this product,
otherwise it seems a great addition to the possibilities of vegan cuisine.
